What is Sari-sari Store?

A lot of you may wonder why I have the category Sari-sari Store. So what is it? Sari-sari Store is, as the name implies, a store which you can find on many streets of the Philippines where you can buy a wide range of products from groceries, slippers, over-the-counter medicines, toiletries and sometimes cooked food as well.

So if you happen to pass by a street in the Philippines and you see a sign like 'Aling Emma's Sari-sari Store', that literally means 'Ms. Emma's Convenience Store'. Sari-sari Store is a local version of 7-11 for the masses, but it's not open 24-hours.

The Road to Creativity

I wouldn't deviate from the norm. As most of the blogs have started this way, I'm going to do the same. So I would say this to all of you...... WELCOME!

This blog would serve as my journal as I walk the path towards CREATIVITY. I'd say that's one thing that has eluded me in my world of photography. Just a brief history on how I got started with photography...I had been taking photos since 1992. I didn't even own a camera back then. I started with a Fuji film camera which I borrowed from my aunt. Then ten years later, I bought my very first digital camera, a Sony DSC P71. It was a 3.2 megapixel camera. I used those two cameras primarily to record memories of my travel adventures. I first used the Fuji camera on my highschool educational field trip to the zoo and the museum.  I bought the Sony digital camera just before I went to spend holidays in Las Vegas, Nevada.
